I talk it he has not ever participated in Javascript or baking discussions.
It turns out that discussions have often nothing to do with identity, and a lot with depth of knowledge and depth of conviction. Shallow knowledge & deep convictions are what leads to disaster.
Maybe it's not labels, but the desire to position yourself as an expert, even if you don't really understand the problem.
